Oxalis

Shamrocks, otherwise also known as Oxalis, have symbolized many things throughout history. Legend has it that the leaves of the four-leaf clover symbolize hope, faith and love, and God added another leaf for luck. The shamrock has a rich history in Ireland, including religious and political symbolism. An icon of Irish pride and culture, the shamrock is the most recognized symbol of the Irish, especially on St. Patrick's Day.
